FAQs

Is this tank top suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, organic merino wool is known for its softness and is generally well-tolerated by sensitive skin. The smooth surface and natural fibers minimize irritation.

How does merino wool keep my child warm?

Merino wool fibers have natural crimp that traps air, creating an insulating layer. This helps to keep body heat close to the skin.

Can this be worn in warm weather?

Yes, merino wool is also breathable and moisture-wicking, which helps to keep the skin dry and cool in warmer conditions by allowing heat and sweat vapor to escape.

How often should this tank top be washed?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. It can be worn multiple times between washes if aired out properly. Wash only when necessary to preserve the fibers.

What is the difference between this and a regular cotton tank top?

Merino wool offers superior thermoregulation, moisture-wicking, and breathability compared to cotton. It also remains warm even when damp, unlike cotton.

What does 'close, but comfortable fit' mean?

It means the garment is designed to fit the body snugly, like a base layer, to maximize its thermal and moisture-wicking properties, but without feeling tight or restrictive.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels itchy

Ensure the garment is a genuine merino wool product and has been washed according to care instructions with a wool-specific detergent. Organic merino wool is typically very soft, but initial washes can sometimes improve the feel.

Shrinkage after washing

The garment may have been exposed to high temperatures during washing or drying. Always use a cold or wool cycle (max 30°C) and lay flat to dry. Avoid tumble drying.

Loss of shape

Hand wash or use a delicate machine cycle. Lay flat to dry. Avoid wringing or stretching the garment excessively when wet.
